钴铈复合金属氧化物催化剂上氧化亚氮催化分解性能研究

采用共沉淀法制备了一系列钴铈复合金属氧化物催化剂CoCex(x=0～0.2,x为Ce/Co摩尔比),进行了比表面积和XRD表征,并考察了它们对氧化亚氮催化分解反应的活性.结果表明,随着铈添加量的增加,催化剂上钴尖晶石相的衍射峰逐渐宽化,同时催化剂的比表面积逐渐增大;催化剂的活性随着铈添加量的增加先升高,然后下降,CoCe0.05催化剂表现出了最佳催化活性.在对CoCe0.05催化剂制备条件的考察实验中发现,共沉淀过程中控制pH值在9左右,于400 ℃焙烧得到的催化剂的活性最好.当反应气氛中存在O2或H2O时,CoCe0.05催化剂上N2O的分解反应受到抑制,但这种影响是可逆的,可能是由于它们与N2O在相同的活性位上存在竞争吸附.     

Au/CeO2催化剂上CO2选择加氢为CO反应及其中间物种研究

CO2的化学转化具有环境及科学双重研究意义.CO2具有很高的化学稳定性,加氢还原是一种有效的转化途径.其中将CO2选择性还原为CO,即逆水汽变换(RWGS)反应(CO2+H2→CO+H2O),具有重要的理论意义和应用价值:(1)CO作为合成气的重要原料,可以通过F-T合成生产更有价值的液体燃料;(2)H2可通过可再生能源电解水制取,实现了全过程的零排放碳循环利用.从热力学角度分析,RWGS反应是一个吸热反应,高温有利于平衡转化率的提高.从动力学角度,一个对正反应有活性的催化剂可同时催化逆反应进行.可还原性载体负载贵金属催化剂,如Pt/CeO2,Au/FeOx,Au/CeO2等,具有很好的低温WGS催化活性,但它们在RWGS反应上的研究较少.我们制备了CeO2负载纳米Au催化剂(HRTEM表征结果表明金高度分散于CeO2载体表面,粒径为4-5 nm),其在常压CO2加氢还原为CO反应中表现出优异的低温活性,分别在450℃,CO2/H2=1,WHSV=12000 mL/(h·g),及400℃,H2/CO2=1,WHSV=6000 mL/(h·g)条件下,CO2转化率接近平衡转化率,且CO的选择性为100%.随着H2/CO2比例增加,CO2转化率明显提高,且维持H2/CO2为1的化学计量比反应.通过原位漫反射红外光谱与质谱相结合的技术,研究了Au/CeO2催化剂上的RWGS反应路径:Au/CeO2催化剂表面形成了甲酸盐中间物种,它的消耗伴随着CO和H2O产物的生成.说明Au/CeO2催化剂遵循中间体机理,这应该是其具有优异低温RWGS反应性能的微观机制.     

In situ FT-IR studies on the mechanism of selective catalytic reduction of NOx by propene over SnO2/Al2O3 catalyst

The mechanism of the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx by propene over SnO2/Al2O3 catalyst in the presence of oxygen has been investigated using in situ Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. In situ IR measurements indicate that acetate and formate, which are the derivatives of the partial oxidation of propene, play a crucial role in the formation of NCO by reacting with the reactive monodentate nitrate species. The resulting NCO species subsequently reacts with NOx to form N2. The presence of oxygen substantially contributes to the partial oxidation of propene and thus shows a promoting effect for the NOx reduction.

In situ extended X-ray absorption fine structure study during selective alcohol oxidation over Pd/Al2O3 in supercritical carbon dioxide

High-pressure in situ X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data are reported during the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde in supercritical carbon dioxide over a Pd/Al(2)O(3) catalyst (shell impregnated). For this purpose, a continuous-flow system with a spectroscopic cell suitable for in situ X-ray absorption studies on heterogeneous catalysts up to 200 degrees C and 200 bar has been developed. Due to the high contribution of the dense fluid to the overall X-ray absorption, high stability of the process pressure is mandatory, particularly when recording EXAFS spectra. According to EXAFS and XANES results, the palladium particles were fully reduced after exposure to benzyl alcohol in scCO(2). In contrast to Pd-catalyzed liquid-phase oxidation, a higher oxygen tolerance of the catalyst was observed. Palladium was partially oxidized on the surface under typical reaction conditions (0.9 mol % benzyl alcohol/0.5 mol % O(2) in carbon dioxide), which gradually increased when the concentration of oxygen in the feed was raised. Both XANES and EXAFS data uncovered that palladium is mainly oxidized on the surface or within the outermost layers. These results are in accordance with simulations of the XANES data using the FEFF8.20 code (program for ab initio calculations on multiple scattering XAS) and EXAFS data fitting/simulation.     

Co3O4-decorated carbon nanotubes as a novel efficient catalyst in the selective oxidation of benzoins

An efficient and facile air oxidation of benzoins in the presence of the heterogeneous catalyst, Co₃O₄–CNTs nanocomposite, has been developed. It thus constitutes a very simple, clean, economical and selective method for the aerobic preparation of benzils from the corresponding benzoins. The catalyst can be re-used a number of times without losing its catalytic activity to a greater extent.

H2-induced CO adsorption and dissociation over Co/Al2O3 catalyst

The activation of adsorbed CO is an important step in CO hydrogenation. The results from TPSR of pre-adsorbed CO with H2 and syngas suggested that the presence of H2 increased the amount of CO adsorption and accelerated CO dissociation. The H2 was adsorbed first, and activated to form H＊ over metal sites, then reacted with carbonaceous species. The oxygen species for CO2 formation in the presence of hydrogen was mostly OH^＊, which reacted with adsorbed CO subsequently via CO^＊＋OH^＊ → CO2^＊＋H^＊; however, the direct CO dissociation was not excluded in CO hydrogenation. The dissociation of C-O bond in the presence of H2 proceeded by a concerted mechanism, which assisted the Boudourd reaction of adsorbed CO on the surface via CO^＊＋2H^＊ → CH^＊＋OH^＊. The formation of the surface species （CH） from adsorbed CO proceeded as indicated with the participation of surface hydrogen, was favored in the initial step of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.

Catalytic methanol decomposition to carbon monoxide and hydrogen over Pd/CeO2-ZrO2-La2O3 with different Ce/Zr molar ratios

The catalytic behaviors of Pd (1.4 wt%) catalysts supported on CeO2-ZrO2-La2O3 mixed oxides with different Ce/Zr molar ratios were investigated for methanol decomposition. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption (BET), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Pd dispersion analysis were used for their characterization. Pd/Ce0.76Zr0.18 La0.06 O1.97 catalyst showed the highest BET surface area, best Pd dispersion capability and strongest metal-support interaction. Moreover, XPS showed that there was lattice defect oxygen or mobile oxygen. According to the result of O 1s measurements the lattice defect oxygen or mobile oxygen helped to maintain Pd in a partly oxidized state and increased the activity for methanol decomposition. The Pd/Ce0.76Zr0.18La0.06O1.97 catalyst exhibited the best activity. A 100% conversion of methanol was achieved at around 260℃, which was about 20-40 ℃ lower than other catalysts

Study on Au/Al2O3 catalysts for low-temperature CO oxidation in situ FT-IR

Au/Al2O3 catalyst was prepared by a modified anion impregnation method and investigated with respect to its initial activity and stability for low-temperature CO oxidation. The activity changes of the catalyst were examined after separate treatment in CO+O2 or CO2+O2. Furthermore, in situ FT-IR studies were performed to investigate the species on the surface when CO or CO+O2 or CO2+O2 was selected separately as adsorption gas. The results showed that Au/Al2O3 catalyst exhibited very high initial activity, but the catalytic activity was found to decrease gradually during CO oxidation with time on stream. And also, the activity of the catalyst declined after treatment in CO+O2 or CO2+O2. The formation and accumulation of carbonate-like species during CO oxidation or treatment in CO+O2 or CO2+O2 might be mainly responsible for the activity decrease, which was reversible.     

Investigation of CO and formaldehyde oxidation over mesoporous Ag/Co3O4 catalysts

CO and formaldehyde (HCHO) oxidation reactions were investigated over mesoporous Ag/Co₃O₄ catalysts prepared by one-pot (OP) and impregnation (IM) methods. It was found that the one-pot method was superior to the impregnation method for synthesizing Ag/Co₃O₄ catalysts with high activity for both reactions. It was also found that the catalytic behavior of mesoporous Co₃O₄ and Ag/Co₃O₄ catalysts for the both reactions was different. And the addition of silver on mesoporous Co₃O₄ did not always enhance the catalytic activity of final catalyst for CO oxidation at room temperature (20 °C), but could significantly improve the catalytic activity of final catalyst for HCHO oxidation at low temperature (90 °C). The high surface area, uniform pore structure and the pretty good dispersion degree of the silver particle should be responsible for the excellent low-temperature CO oxidation activity. However, for HCHO oxidation, the addition of silver played an important role in the activity enhancement. And the silver particle size and the reducibility of Co₃O₄ should be indispensable for the high activity of HCHO oxidation at low temperature.     

In situ growth of Co3O4 nano-dodecahedeons on In2O3 hexagonal prisms for toluene catalytic combustion

In this paper, in situ growth of Co₃O₄ nano-dodecahedra on In₂O₃ hexagonal prisms were synthesized via pyrolysis of ZIF-67/MIL-68. Interestingly, the amount of Co₃O₄ dodecahedra on In₂O₃ hexagonal prisms was regularly regulated and controlled. In detail, four Co₃O₄/In₂O₃ catalysts with various Co/In molar ratio were prepared, including Co₄In₁ (Co/In molar ratio was 4:1), Co₂In₁ (Co/In molar ratio was 2:1), Co₁In₁ (Co/In molar ratio was 1:1), Co_0.5In₁ (Co/In molar ratio was 0.5:1). The catalytic performance of Co₃O₄/In₂O₃ catalysts was systematically investigated for toluene combustion. It could be noted that the Co₂In₁ sample exhibited the superior catalytic performance, and the temperatures for 90% toluene conversion (T₉₀) was 182 °C. Furthermore, the toluene conversion of Co₂In₁ sample had no significant decrease at 178 °C for 15 h, indicating that it presented superior stability for toluene oxidation reaction. Through various characterizations, it was verified that the Co/In molar ratio of Co₃O₄/In₂O₃ catalyst could obviously alter the surface atomic ratio of Co³⁺/(Co³⁺ + Co²⁺), BET surface area, the number of surface adsorbed oxygen, the interaction between In₂O₃ and Co₃O₄ of CoInO_x catalysts and so on. The lots of surface adsorbed oxygen, strong interaction between In₂O₃ and Co₃O₄ would promote the catalytic oxidation of toluene. Especially, we discovered that the catalytic activity of Co₃O₄/In₂O₃ was obviously improved with the increase of Co³⁺/(Co³⁺ + Co²⁺) surface atomic ratio.

N2O在Au/Co3O4和Au/ZnCo2O4催化剂上的分解反应

通过调变HAuCl₄溶液的pH值和Au负载量,用沉积-沉淀法制备了一系列Au/Co₃O₄催化剂,并采用AES、BET、XRD、SEM、XPS和H₂-TPR等技术对催化剂的结构和组成进行了表征,考察了制备条件对其在有氧气氛中催化N₂O分解反应性能的影响规律,得到了催化剂最佳制备条件:HAuCl₄溶液pH值为9,Au负载量为0.29%。催化测试结果表明:虽然ZnCo₂O₄的催化活性优于Co₃O₄,但0.31%Au/ZnCo₂O₄的活性和稳定性低于0.29%Au/Co₃O₄。500℃、在含氧气氛中连续反应10 h, 两者均可完全分解N₂O,但在含氧、含水气氛中0.29%Au/Co₃O₄和0.31%Au/ZnCo₂O₄上的N₂O转化率分别为92%和63%。究其原因,发现Au/Co₃O₄中Au和Co组分间存在协同效应,而Au/ZnCo₂O₄中Au和Co组分间则没有协同效应。
